Ball Screw Driven Single Axis Linear Stage
DLY YZH single axis linear stage is designed for precision positioning and controlled linear movement in one direction. It combines a ball screw drive, linear guide support, rigid base structure and moving table to provide stable travel, repeatable motion and convenient installation in automation equipment.
Compared with a simple slide table, this single axis positioning table is more suitable for applications that require accurate stroke control, motorized movement and stable workpiece positioning. It can be used as an independent linear motion unit or integrated into multi-axis equipment according to the machine design.
YZH, YZHT and YZHK structure options are available for different table sizes, mounting layouts and motor installation requirements. The stage can be supplied with or without motor and control system according to customer configuration needs.
Single Axis Positioning Table for Precision Motion
The single axis linear stage converts motor rotation into linear movement through the ball screw. The linear guide rails support the moving table and help maintain smooth motion during travel. This structure is suitable for equipment that requires a compact linear positioning mechanism with defined stroke, mounting holes and motor connection space.
Typical applications include CNC auxiliary positioning, inspection equipment, dispensing systems, laser equipment, assembly machines, measuring devices, laboratory automation and customized motion platforms.
Product Structure and Working Principle
The YZH single axis linear stage is built around a ball screw transmission system. When the motor drives the screw, the nut converts rotary motion into linear motion and moves the table along the guide rails. The guide rails carry the table and help improve movement stability under positioning or feeding conditions.
The table surface includes mounting holes for fixtures, tooling plates or workpieces. The base structure provides installation points for fixing the stage onto the machine frame. The motor-side extension dimension may change according to the selected motor shaft length and installation configuration.
For projects that do not require a complete motorized system, the stage can be supplied without motor and controller. For equipment builders who need a ready-to-integrate motion unit, DLY can also support configuration according to stroke, table size, motor interface and mounting requirements.

Main Features of DLY Single Axis Linear Stage
Ball Screw Drive for Controlled Linear Movement
The ball screw drive provides efficient motion conversion and is suitable for positioning applications that need defined stroke and stable movement. It is a better choice than a simple manual slide when the equipment requires motorized control or repeatable feeding.
Linear Guide Support for Stable Table Travel
The moving table is supported by linear guide rails, helping the stage maintain smoother travel and better guidance during operation. This is important for inspection, assembly, machining assistance and other applications where the table must move along a fixed linear path.
Multiple Stroke and Table Size Options
Standard YZH models cover stroke options from 50 mm to 600 mm. Different base lengths, table dimensions and mounting hole layouts are available, making it easier to match the stage with machine space, fixture size and workpiece travel requirements.
Motor and Control Configuration Flexibility
The stage can be supplied as a mechanical positioning table without motor and control system, or configured according to the user's motor and automation requirements. This gives equipment builders more flexibility when integrating the stage into existing control systems.
